Two people have reportedly died with several others sustaining serious injuries in a bus crash that occurred on the Kumasi-Bawku route at Nangode in the Nabdam District of the Upper East Region.
The accident happened in the early hours of Friday, August 23, 2024. Reports suggest that the driver may have handed over control of the steering wheel to his mate just before the crash.
However, the mate lost control when the bus hit a speed ramp, causing it to summersault, killing two people instantly and injuring many others.
A survivor of the accident, Adam Iddrisu Emmanuel, narrated the incident, saying, “This morning, we were coming from Kumasi to Bawku. When we got here, the driver applied the brake, and actually, I don’t know what happened. The bus lost balance and hit the bridge. We loaded at Kumasi at Adehyeman near Kejetia, and we were heading to Garu.”
